Watch to find out what real women think is the key to a successful marriage

Hi. I'm Annemarie Conte, senior editor at Woman's Day Magazine. And we are here in the heart of Time Square in New York City because Woman's Day wants to know: So, what's your secret to a happy marriage? I'm assuming you're happily married. </p> <p>Well, I am happily married, 27 years. </p> <p>Yey. Congratulations. </p> <p>Thank you very much. Honesty and communication is the best thing. </p> <p>Compromise. </p> <p>I'm married 30 years, and it's marrying your best friend. I swear to God that's the secret. </p> <p>Tolerance. </p> <p>Tolerance. That's even better than compromise 'cause, you know, compromise only gets you so far. But if it can't be, you got to be able to stand them. </p> <p>Respect. </p> <p>Respect. </p> <p>Your spouse has to be your best friend, by far. </p> <p>I'm Annemarie Conte, and you've been watching WD on the Street.
